Used. No fall damage. Has the box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a Southern Grind Bad Monkey in the satin tanto configuration with twill woven carbon fiber scales and an Emerson Wave opener. See the photos for condition before you buy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSouthern Grind is no longer in business, so every one of these that comes through is one that already exists and is not being replaced. The company was started by Zac Brown in Peachtree City, Georgia, later ran under Diamondback Knife Works in Florida, and has now ceased operations entirely. That does not make this a collector piece overnight, but it does mean the supply is fixed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Bad Monkey is the big one in the line. Nearly four inches of blade, titanium liners, and a liner lock, with the Emerson Wave hook on the spine so it opens on the way out of the pocket. The tanto grind puts a lot of steel behind the tip, which is the point of a tanto, and 14C28N is a steel that sharpens easily and does not rust if you look at it wrong. It is a working knife, not a safe queen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy This One Stands Out\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEmerson Wave opener, opens as it clears the pocket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwill woven carbon fiber scales over 6AL4V titanium liners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModified tanto in Sandvik 14C28N at 59 to 61 HRC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrom a brand that has closed its doors, so supply is finite\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual thumb studs as well, if you would rather not Wave it\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: Used, trade in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Southern Grind\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: Bad Monkey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSKU: SG02050008\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade Length: 3.875\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverall Length: 9.125\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClosed Length: 5.25\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade Steel: Sandvik 14C28N, 59 to 61 HRC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade Shape: Modified tanto\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade Finish: Tumbled satin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade Thickness: 0.130\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrind: Flat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEdge: Plain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandle Material: Twill woven carbon fiber, black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLiners: 6AL4V titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLock: Liner lock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeployment: Emerson Wave, plus dual thumb studs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 4.97 oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes: Box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFall Damage: None\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry of Origin: Made in USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout The Back Door\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Back Door is where trade ins, returns, blems, demos, and one-offs go.
